Are those prices with ot without commission?

There were also some 196* PR69DCAMs as well. How did they do?

I might be the reason why 1955, 1956, 1958 PR68CAM price so high.

I bought a few of the 70s dates. I did feel that the prices in general were strong.

Interesting results:

1973-S PCGS PR69DC - $661 Lot 15214,
1973-S PCGS PR69DC - $132 Lot 15215.

One 1977 went for twice another. Is it the images or what, Heritage does not image coins well, and cameo's are the hardest.

You guys need to read the post I made on the coin forum about this.

Those were all my coins!

I would think the discussion would be about all the PR70DCAM coins
that went for over $1000...I made a tidy profit there for sure!

I can say that most of those coins you mentioned are
incredibly difficult to find. I actually took a *loss* on
more than one of those.
